Chronic facial redness is common, and two of the leading causes are rosacea and facial seborrheic dermatitis (facial dandruff). My Facial Redness Relief Kits contain dermatologist recommended products that are proven to relieve and calm facial redness. I've treated thousands of dermatology patients with these conditions in my 25+ years of practice. During that time I've found that the best skin care ingredients for controlling facial redness are pyrithione zinc and the combination of high concentration green tea antioxidants with caffeine.

Dr. Bailey Wants You to Know

This Facial Redness Relief Kit contains the highest available amounts of green tea anti-oxidants and pyrithione zinc in soothing products so that your skin can heal. Calming Zinc ® Bar Soap contains a full 2% pyrithione zinc and the Green Tea Antioxidant Skin Therapy Cream contains the antioxidants from 500 cups of brewed green tea in each ounce of cream!

If you're uncertain about which of the two kits to try (either this one, or the Facial Redness Relief Kit - Oil Free), get this one because it's the Redness Relief Kit that I use most in my dermatology practice for my patients with facial redness.

Why do my Facial Redness Relief Kits work for the most common causes of facial redness?

When you have rosacea and/or facial seborrheic dermatitis, your pores have more pityrosporum yeast germs in them. If you have rosacea then we know that your pores may also have an increased number of demodex mites too.

Everyone has some of these two 'germs' in their pores, but if you have rosacea and/or facial dandruff then your pores may be pretty crowded with these germs, which in turn contributes to facial redness and inflammation.

Along with their contribution to facial redness, these germs can cause pimples. The pityrosporum skin yeast can also cause skin flaking along the sides of your nose, chin and in your eyebrows. This flaking red facial skin is often mistaken as 'dry skin' but it's really part of the inflammation that's making your skin red. Controlling these germs helps your skin heal.

My Calming Zinc ® Soap contains a full 2% pyrithione zinc to help control the number of these pityrosporum yeast germs, and possibly even the mites in your pores too. My patients wash with it once or twice a day, and invariably their facial redness improves. There's less inflammation, fewer pimples and less flaky scale. Calming Zinc ® is a natural and handmade olive oil soap base that is rich in naturally anti-inflammatory ingredients including oats, calendula and shea butter.

It's also oil-free because the olive oil and shea butter added at the beginning of the soap making process are turned into soap and glycerin by the 'magic' of this process (called saponification). This means it’s the best anti-yeast soap for people with acne and oily skin too.

The Green Tea Antioxidant Skin Therapy is also rich in hyaluronic acid to hydrate and rebalance your skin. You’ll notice how your skin feels intantly soothed after you apply it! I've depended on the combination of green tea and caffeine in this Green Tea Antioxidant Skin Therapy for years in my dermatology practice and for my own skin, too. It’s a hefty load of green tea polyphenol antioxidants. When mixed with caffeine these polyphenol antioxidants yield a nearly miraculous calming effect on facial inflammation. This quieting of your facial inflammation will allow your skin to heal and your redness to subside.

Directions For Use

Wash once or twice a day with the Calming Zinc ® Soap. First wet your face with tepid water then create a lather with the bar soap between your palms or on a wash cloth. Apply the lather onto your facial skin. Take care to keep the lather out of your eyes. Rinse well with tepid water and towel dry.

Immediately apply one pump of the Green Tea Antioxidant Skin Therapy Cream. The Green Tea Cream should be applied both morning and night for best results.

Customer Reviews

Due to ongoing issues with facial redness, sensitivity, perioral dermatitis and angular chelitis (whew!) I wanted to try something that was calming, fragrance free and developed by a dermatologist - nice bonus that she uses these products herself. I have been using them both for some weeks and they are good so far. The soap bar in particular is really nice to use. I love being able to get a good lather going, really clean my skin, but not feel tight or dry or stripped at the end. I then follow this with a gentle toner and the green tea serum. I wish the serum was not so expensive, but I get that these products are expensive to develop and produce. I also bought the sensitive Avene facial tanning product (to disguise redness) but I am not so impressed by this. I am super fair and I don't feel it's a good match for my skin. But in all I am super happy I have discovered Dr Bailey's website and products.

Wish there was more in bottle and a way to see when almost empty. I have roseace and also was treated with chemo therapy this past winter. Tried so many products that caused dermatitis attacks. I was again researching internet recently and saw Dr. Baily's blog. I still had burning prickly tight feeling on forehead and chin. I finally decided to look at things that had vasoconstriction properties. I read the ingredients in the redness relief green tea lotion and hoped it would work. Within 24 hours my forehead finally stopped burning and prickling. My face looked whiter no oily slick like most lotions. Was worried at first that it was too mat and not hydrating but it felt cool and soothed as well as hydrated.. unfortunately the zinc soap irritates too much. I'm trying the gentle foam on cleanser instead. Waiting for it to arrive. Please never stop making this lotion. It's expensive but to not to have pain is priceless. Again a clear bottle like Toleraine Ulta would be great you can see inside and it is very steril. I ran out and waiting for another bottle. Unsung toleraine again until I get it and my forehead is already starting to burn and sting again.

I never write reviews, but feel compelled to submit a review for this kit as it has been pretty life changing for me! I've had rosacea now for about 3-4 years, and have tried numerous skincare products, all to no avail. However, I've now been using this kit plus Cynthia Bailey's daily moisturiser for about 10 weeks, and it has literally been life changing. You do need to persevere, because I think it took about 7 weeks for me to really notice an improvement, but I can now leave the house without make-up to cover the redness on my face, as it has reduced so much. I live in the UK so have had to order this as an international customer, but it has been worth it for me as it has made such a dramatic change to my skin. Thoroughly recommended for rosacea sufferers!
